A Treasury Bill is a negotiable debt obligation issued by a government. Treasury bills are considered to be short-term, as the period of maturity is one year or less. They are exempt from local and state taxes. They are the safest form of marketable investment. For example, you could buy a 13-week T-bill priced at $9,700. At this point, the US government would owe you $10,000, due in three months. Thus, you are earning the difference between what you paid (the discounted value) and what the government pays you: $300. The result is the government pays a 3.09% interest rate ($300/$9,700 = 3.09%) over the tenure of three months. Call money market refers to the mechanism which allows both dealers and brokers to borrow funds to invest. The funds are used either to provide finance for purchasing securities which can be added to the investment firm's portfolio or as a resource for covering the margin accounts of the clients of the firm. The call money market offers a means of securing finance for credit needs. The chief option for securing finance is the call money loan. Generally short term loans, these loans are used for transactions between banks or with other dealers of money markets.

The foreign exchange market (forex, FX, or currency market) is a worldwide decentralized over-the-counter financial market for the trading of currencies. Financial centers around the world function as anchors of trading between a wide range of different types of buyers and sellers around the clock, with the exception of weekends. The foreign exchange market determines the relative values of different currencies. The primary purpose of the foreign exchange is to assist international trade and investment, by allowing businesses to convert one currency to another currency. For example, it permits a US business to import British goods and pay Pound Sterling, even though the business's income is in US dollars.
In finance, a derivative is a financial instrument (or, more simply, an agreement between two parties) that has a value, based on the expected future price movements of the asset to which it is linkedcalled the underlying asset such as a share or a currency. There are many kinds of derivatives, with the most common being futures, and options.
